Michigan is suspending Juwan Howard for the rest of the regular season, according to Yahoo Sports’ Dan Wetzel. Stadium’s Jeff Goodman and ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg confirmed the report, with Goodman adding that Michigan worked with the Big Ten on this punishment.
The punishment comes at the heels of an altercation on Sunday with the Wisconsin basketball team, where Howard swung at Wisconsin assistant Joe Krabbenhoft. He’ll miss a total of five games.
The altercation ensued after Sunday’s game because Howard was upset with Wisconsin coach Greg Gard for calling a timeout in the game's final seconds with a large lead.
